Vox Nihili posted:$1 per ounce I buy Nestle at 35c per ounce in South Africa. There's an Irish brand here, Infacare, that costs 24c per ounce which I haven't tried. I remember looking into this when that factory closed down in the USA and the price was in large part due to protectionist policies in the USA.

HootTheOwl posted:Dog has opened up to his baby sister. Which is good, because when she spits up he's on it. Same. First, dog just avoided baby. At one year, baby fed dog and dog loved it, but dog disrespected her and knocked her down when she was walking sometimes. At 15 months, she started playing with dog aggressively. Had to teach her to play gently, but it instilled some respect in dog. Now at 18 months they seem to be at a good place and they just go outside and run around each other joyously, barking and laughing.

Mom made some turmeric tea for herself. Baby took the teacup and drank it. Didn't like it, so gently put the teacup on the bed and walked away. We're probably never going to get the yellow stain off of the sheets now. Microplastics posted:Dog is a klingon and baby gave it the vulcan hello Heh.

My 18 month old is suddenly fast. Goes up and down stairs on her feet. Opens doors. Jiggles keys in doors. Climbs railings and trees. Now every now and then in the house you just hear "DO YOU HAVE HER?" and another voice "YES SHES HERE NOW"

When our 18 month old wants food that you're not giving her, she goes to grab a spatula from the drawer and starts hitting you. Also she has opinions about fashion now, with a clear preference for certain clothes. She digs through the laundry bag for stuff she likes and wants to wear dirty clothes. It's shocking how quickly her mind develops.

His first song he sang all the way through was Pursuit of Happiness. Last year the preschool sent us a video of him singing pumped up kicks during a game of tug of war. I only get away with it cuz my wife thought the song was about shoes. I am definitely paying for it now cuz he will occasionally drop a random f-bomb in perfect context. Please teach me how to influence my child's music taste.

just_a_person posted:I made an effort to never let him listen to kids music or cocomelon when he was young, and I would sing and play guitar with him every night when he was young acoustical pop and rap songs. We only listened to music we liked so I think he picked up our taste, or at least adult music taste. Definitely paid off cuz we do karaoke night and he can sing from memory Circles by Post Malone. That's awesome. Thanks for the advice, I'm gonna start playing my Game OVA Nightcore remixes with her.

My 18 month is very creative. She keeps inventing new games. Right now she packs chairs in a corner and barricades herself in there and then I pretend to be a dinosaur trying to get her.

My 20 month old has suddenly gotten super picky about food, and refuses to sleep if she can help it. Tough times. She eats yogurt, peas with tomato sauce, potatoes, boiled egg white, strawberries, grapes, spaghetti or tofu. Other items are variable.

The Top G posted:My partner is very anti-Cocomelon and thinks that it’s uniquely damaging to children and their development. Digging into it a bit, and it seems as though the claim is based on the faster pace of the show compared to older shows. Specifically, the scenes change more frequently than other shows I’ve seen. This guy posted the original video based on one short clip: When my child sees TV, she's maybe interested. Depending on if it's a show she likes. She tends to pay attention to some extent, and then get bored and move away from the screen, eventually. With CocoMelon she fixates like she's fully hypnotized. It just seems to be better at grabbing and keeping kids attention, I think, which has knock on effects such as causing prolonged screentime easier? CocoMelon is banned in our house cause it's irritating.

Woke Mind Virus posted:Danny Go owns. My favorites are when he clearly uses some 3d model only because it's in some library of free assets. Couple times the end of his song has a gigantic Pig or Squirrel with a jarring half life 2 quality. That one 3D dog in Teacher Rachel's videos is hilarious but freaks me out a bit. Danny go looks nice. Added to my list. First song recommended is Give Me That Garbage, which is wholesome and great. Reminds me, my 21 month old can hear when the garbage truck is in the street (I usually can't) and then gets very upset if I don't take her with me to bring the empty bin back. She has respect for garbage trucks.

It's like... lady, doing emotional manipulation while literally on the phone with the child is part of why we don't trust you with the child. It's going to get worse when she's older and can understand. drat, that sucks. Sorry to hear. I have supportive family nearby, which is incredibly helpful for raising a family. Some of them just have limitations I gotta work around... Sounds like you're doing the right thing there. DR FRASIER KRANG posted:there's no such thing as a regular set of in-laws.

Wish my kid respected bedtime. She's super inconsistent, even if we are consistent. At least she's desiring independence and wants to go to bed on her own (she fails, but I appreciate the effort) before she's 2. Microplastics posted:And also sell you social interaction. See: $300/mth tinder subscription Wtf. I'm so glad I'm happily married.
